In her concern with movement, kinaesthesis and proprioception as the basis for consciousness, and in her desire to describe the experiential aspects of organismic activity, Sheets-Johnstone calls to mind Margaret Floy Washburn (1908, 1916), an author unfortunately unrepresented in this book.

While Sheets-Johnstone finds Husseri's phenomenology to take significant account of kinaesthesis and Merleau-Ponty's to ignore its significance, others espouse the opposite view (Gallagher, 1995).
